The atmospheric pressure, P = f(y, t) = (950+2t)e y7 , in millibars, on a weather balloon,

Question:

The atmospheric pressure, P = f(y, t) = (950+2t)e−y∕7, in millibars, on a weather balloon, is a function of its height y ≥ 0, in km above sea level after t hours with 0 ≤ t ≤ 48.

Find f(2, 12). Give units and interpret this quantity in the context of atmospheric pressure.
